Tutoring Services: Types of Tutoring: Online Tutoring

We offer an online tutoring service called NetTutor that operates even when we are closed.

Students, you can use NetTutor on a 24/7/365 basis for math and many other popular subjects. This means you can get tutoring in most subjects during and after regular campus hours!

You can access NetTutor through the myMATC portal (Students menu) or, in some cases, through your Blackboard classes.

Instructors, we have provided detailed instructions for adding a NetTutor button to your Blackboard class.

Note: We encourage students to find MATC tutors before using NetTutor. We also discourage students from relying solely upon NetTutor for assistance, as NetTutor is only free for 32 hours of use per semester. MATC tutoring is always free.

We do still offer in-person tutoring in most subjects on all four campuses. Search our Tutoring Schedules to find out when and where.

Online help for writing assignments

Need help writing a paper?  You now have two options!

1. For a personal touch by MATC staff, follow the directions on this page for using the MATC Online Writing Lab (OWL). Allow one to two business days for a reply.

The Online Writing Lab (OWL) helps MATC students develop the skills they need to become confident and self-sufficient writers. Any MATC student with a course-related writing assignment can get help.

Students, email your paper as an attachment in Microsoft Word (.docx or .doc) or Rich Text Format (*RTF) to writing@matc.edu and include the following in the body of your email:

1. First and last name
2. Student ID number
3. Course name and number
